According to South Korean military sources, North Korea has blown up parts of the inter-Korean road links. According to the South Korean news agency Yonhap, the General Staff in Seoul announced that parts of two roads on the northern side of the demarcation line had been destroyed. A few days ago, North Korea announced its intention to permanently cut off all road and rail links to South Korea. This was justified on the grounds of protecting national security and preventing war. The inter-Korean road links were once regarded as symbols of cooperation between South and North Korea, as reported by Yonhap.
